Empowering Disabled Children, Young Adults And Their Families

Empowering Disabled Children, Young Adults And Their Families

Our Steps To Supporting You​

Our team of staff and volunteers run a wide variety of activities for children and young people, and their families, up to the age of 30 years old.

We welcome contact from anyone connected with a disabled child or adult – including (but not limited to) parents, carers, grandparents, social workers, teachers and youth workers.

Let us help identify the ways we may be able to offer support

An essential part of our work is keeping in regular contact with parents/carers, letting them know we care and helping to identify ways in which we may be able to offer support.
